The Uchiha's Path to the Top, Starting from Konoha

Chapter 148 Pregnancy

(The Uchiha clan are all tsundere types.)

Over the past few years, I've observed that all Uchiha clan members who have awakened their Sharingan share a striking characteristic—a very pronounced egoism.

Simply put, it means "I think this is how it is, and it has to be this way."

The Uchiha's brain circuits are prone to getting stuck on trivialities, so the current prosperity of the clan, Konoha, and even the ninja world makes the Uchiha clan members feel proud, and their identification with Uchiha Muan is stronger than ever before.

Every word and action of theirs was regarded as the golden rule by the Uchiha clan. They could truly make most of the Uchiha willingly die with just a single sentence, while the rest were afraid that they would not die quickly enough.

Only a very few Uchiha would have the thought of "I can take his place," such as Mikoto Uchiha, the reincarnation of Indra, who is still drinking milk now.

"If you're not willing to talk, don't come home tonight!"

Kaori Minamoto's tone carried a sense of pressure; she was quite aware that her husband was caught in one of two dilemmas.

One issue is that they have an illegitimate child, and the other is that their safety is at stake.

Regardless of the situation, Minamoto Kaori was angry because of Uchiha Takeoshi's hesitation.

"Your Majesty, there's something I need to do at the Bureau of Civil Affairs. I'll head over there now."

Before Uchiha Muan could say anything to his wife, who was feigning anger, Minako Uzumaki, who was sitting to the side, picked up her briefcase and left the office. Before leaving, she gave the leader of the ninja world a look that said, "I want to know tonight too."

"...Eh?"

Under Kaori Minamoto's sharp gaze, Uchiha Takeo's expression changed slightly. He gave up and looked away, sighed, and slowly said.

"Kaori, I remember telling you before that Hagoromo and Hamura are still alive, right?"

"Darling means...we're now going up against the Sage of Six Paths brothers?"

Kaori Minamoto's eyes widened; she could completely understand what Uchiha Takeoshi meant from his words.

Seeing her husband's solemn expression, Kaori swallowed back the words, "The Uchiha are not descendants of the Sage of Six Paths."

Given Uchiha Takeo's personality, it would be strange if he could accept having two more emperors above him.

After quickly regaining her composure, Minamoto Kaori realized what her man truly needed and spoke up before Uchiha Takeoshi could even open his mouth.

"I will do my best to absorb the energy from the Grell mine. It will probably take about two years to become a Sixth Path combatant."

"Don't be impatient for quick success; your safety is the most important thing."

"Darling, that's the legendary Sage of Six Paths, and his brother."

"If they hadn't threatened me with the ninja world, I would have smashed their heads in today!"

"You can threaten me today, and you can threaten me tomorrow too. If I don't become the Six Paths Sage's darling and keep one person in check, what will happen when the Six Paths Sage continues to threaten you with your family?"

"There's no need to worry about my family. I've left the mark and transcription seal of [Tian Chang Li Zun] on all of you. As long as any unfamiliar aura at the Six Paths level approaches, they will instantly be teleported to my side."

Wanting to fight against Hagoromo and Hamura, how could Uchiha Muan not consider the worst-case scenario? He had completely enveloped the secret space of the dimensional teleportation array with [Tenjō Ritsuzō], forming a small world that he carried with him.

The small world is self-sufficient, enough for a thousand people to live normally, and it can be continuously expanded using spatial abilities. Even if the world is destroyed, Uchiha Wu'an can still lead a portion of the population to survive.

Five years later, in the alternate ninja world, a place to live can also be provided.

But both the Hagoromo and Hamura brothers, and Uchiha Takeo, tried their best to avoid such an ending. In the end, becoming a king and a tyrant is not about becoming a lonely figure.

"Darling, we work hard to become stronger so you can have an easier time. Why don't you rely on us more often?"

Kaori Minamoto left her seat and walked to Uchiha Takehiro's side. She reached out and cupped the man's handsome face, which was a little more mature than it had been four years ago, and gently stroked it with her thumb.

"Darling, I know my own body. It's entirely possible to reduce the time it would have taken to become a Six Paths being from three or four years to two years."

"If you have health problems and can't get pregnant later, don't blame me."

Seeing Kaori's face freeze instantly, Uchiha Takeoshi pulled her into his arms, inhaling the sweet fragrance emanating from his wife, and whispered, "Leave everything to me."

"We don't necessarily have to be their enemy; we're just taking precautions."

"And don't underestimate your man. In a year, I'll obtain the power of the other continent's origin, and then I'll smash Hagoromo and Hamura's heads in!"

"Of course I believe in Darling's abilities, but..."

"Another continent?"

Upon hearing the words "in advance," Kaori Minamoto raised her head from Uchiha Takeo's embrace, her beautiful, blood-red eyes devoid of any emotion.

"Darling, I heard you're accompanied by three very different beauties on another continent."

"When are you going to bring her home so we can all meet her and have a meal together?"

"Oh, that won't be necessary."

Uchiha Wu'an gave an awkward smile, "Their home is on the Magic Continent, so coming to the Ninja World Continent is of no significance to them."

"Is that so?"

Kaori Minamoto reached out and pinched the soft flesh of the man's waist, saying indifferently, "It seems that our leader has a home in the ninja world and a home in the magic continent."

"He's always living a life of pleasure and debauchery. No wonder he doesn't want to rely on us anymore. It turns out he has a woman he can rely on more."

"Kaori".

With her physical strength approaching that of the Six Paths, Minamoto Kaori's two slender fingers caused even the superhumanly strong Uchiha Takeuchi to change color slightly. He said urgently, "What's there to be angry about with them? You are still the ones I love most."

Kaori Minamoto stared directly at Uchiha Takeoshi, who was practically swearing an oath, and snorted twice. Under the threat of Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hamura, she stopped pressing the issue and slowly said...

"With a formidable enemy at hand, Darling knows perfectly well what to do, so I won't say any more."

"As for the Grell mine, I will speed up the absorption process without affecting my body. I should be able to finish it in three years."

No, you can't do it.

Under Kaori's puzzled gaze, Uchiha Takeo picked her up and, in the blink of an eye, returned to his bedroom bed in his mansion.

Gazing at the stunningly beautiful woman with her hair disheveled on the bed and her face flushed with shyness, Uchiha Takeo smiled and said, "Kaori, get pregnant with my child."
